Joel 1:15-18
English Standard Version
Joel 1:15-18
English Standard Version
15 Alas for the day!
(A)For the day of the Lord is near,
and as destruction from the Almighty[a] it comes.
16 Is not the food cut off
before our eyes,
(B)joy and gladness
from the house of our God?
17 (C)The seed shrivels under the clods;[b]
the storehouses are desolate;
the granaries are torn down
because (D)the grain has dried up.
18 How (E)the beasts groan!
The herds of cattle are perplexed
because there is no pasture for them;
even the flocks of sheep suffer.[c]

New International Version
15 Alas for that(A) day!
For the day of the Lord(B) is near;
it will come like destruction from the Almighty.[a](C)
16 Has not the food been cut off(D)
before our very eyes—
joy and gladness(E)
from the house of our God?(F)
17 The seeds are shriveled
beneath the clods.[b](G)
The storehouses are in ruins,
the granaries have been broken down,
for the grain has dried up.
18 How the cattle moan!
The herds mill about
because they have no pasture;(H)
even the flocks of sheep are suffering.(I)
